MUSCAT : “Financial institutions must navigate the dual challenge of adapting to accelerating technological innovations while ensuring sustainability and digital sovereignty,” he stated, pointing out that the decision to host the summit before the start of the second half of 2025 was not coincidental. “It is a conscious response to the banking sector’s need to renew its tools and enhance its readiness for upcoming changes, in line with Oman Vision 2040’s objectives of building a knowledge-based, resilient, and technologically secure economy,” he added.

Padiyarath also noted that the summit serves as an effective platform bringing together decision-makers, technology pioneers, and cybersecurity experts to exchange insights and shape the financial future of Oman and the region.

As the summit progresses, it will witness three high-level panel discussions, featuring top banking and fintech experts.
